DVT

In recent years, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) has been dubbed "economy class syndrome", after being linked with cases in aeroplane passengers. Deep Vein Thrombosis occurs when a blood clot develops in the veins, usually in the calf or thigh muscles. If the blood clot moves and travels from the legs, it can be more serious.
